Sequre VESC WP14200 reliability and experience?

Does anyone have any experience using Sequre WP14200? I’m planning to run a 16S 60V battery with 150 amp max discharge. The Sequre appears to be a little better built than the Flipsky VESC boards.

Link to VESC is below, most worried about reliability and power delivery since this will be used in a wet environment.

I am planning to pair it with a JK BMS JK-PB2A16S-20P, 2 amp balance charge and 200 amp discharge**.**

I don’t think that is a VESC, just an ESC. So it won’t easily be compatible with Bluetooth modules or common to esk8 remotes and doesn’t seem to work with any motor sensors meaning poor low speed torque. And while it’s current rating is very high I think the continuous current without overheating will be poor.

I actually also started off looking at that kind of esc when first building an esk8, and I’m sure it can be done but won’t be good.

I thought when they said it supports the protocols below it meant it is a VESC?

Firmware & Connectivity: Supports AM32, ESCape32, or BLHeli_32 firmware options, which can be configured via a dedicated ESC-Link or USB link.

It means it’s somewhat programmable but doesn’t mean vesc

Yeah that’s not a vesc based controller

Yeah, I realized it’s not going to work when I looked at the full specs and realized my battery will smoke it. Going to a Flipsky 75200.

What’s the full build? For cheap 75v esc the flipsky is hard to beat but their qc is terrible and often broken or doa units get put back on the shelf - get the esc from a place you can do a quick return/replacement on it so you don’t get left holding the bag and get all the other bits for the drive train BEFORE you get the esc so you can test it right when you get it. My brother used flipsky for years with this method and would get a solid year but sometimes two from them regularly.
